Spain's National Police arrested a suspect accused of supporting pro‑Russian hacktivist groups (CARR, Z‑Pentest, NoName057(16)), allegedly providing logistical support to an associated hacker and attempting to facilitate their escape; authorities seized computers and crypto storage and froze wallets tied to sales of stolen data. The groups have been linked to attacks on water and food‑processing facilities and SCADA systems of an American energy firm, and CARR is loosely connected to the state‑linked APT44/Sandworm; the suspect faces investigation for terrorism‑related collaboration, glorification of terrorism, and computer damage.
